Lebanese Political Satirist Charbel Khalil: Atheists Are Donkeys; Leaders of Lebanese Protests Are Filthier Than Pigs

Charbel Khalil, a Lebanese political satirist and TV personality, said in a March 29, 2020 interview on OTV (Lebanon) that all atheists are donkeys and that the jokes told by the people who have been participating in this year's demonstrations in Lebanon are filthier than pigs. He said that the coronavirus pandemic is evidence that Allah is the source of life and humanity, and he criticized the young Western people who have "corona parties," which he said consist of getting drunk and deliberately coughing or sneezing on elderly people in order to infect them. He said that there is no humanity left in these people and that the Lebanese demonstrators have the same ideology as them.

Charbel Khalil: "Excuse my language, but if you released a bunch of pigs in the middle of a city, they would litter less than if you let or three of those activists, who are demonstrating in the streets, tell their filthy jokes.

[...]

"The [activists] out there, who represent the revolution, are one of the main reasons that people are turned off by this revolution, in my opinion.

[...]

"Personally, I believe that atheism is the religion of donkeys. I see atheists as donkeys.

[...]

"Every atheist in this life is a donkey. You will find that Allah [is the source] of all life and humanity and the coronavirus is proof of this.

[...]

"[In Europe and America], people in their twenties and thirties are having what they call 'corona parties.' They meet in pubs or in their homes if these places are closed. They drink alcohol and get drunk and then they go outside, and if they see an old man, they cough or sneeze in his face to infect him. No humanity is left [in them], unfortunately. This is the ideology of many of the young people who are leading this revolution."
